173: Make it into soap!
Law is the bloodline and gene of civilization, and the mark of humanity truly stepping out of ignorance and barbarism.
It flows through the body of society, establishing consensus, guaranteeing rights, upholding justice, and pursuing a deeper, more sustainable integration.
Even if the political entity that bore it perishes, excellent laws can still be embedded in the DNA of civilization, achieving true immortality—just like the Roman Empire that once "tamed time with the laws of wisdom."
For Xi Hai, the laws of the Human Federation certainly could not be applied directly to his own situation, but they were still ten thousand times better than the twisted, reactionary laws existing among humanity today, which were even written with gods and faiths—they were the crystallization of wisdom left behind by humanity at its peak!
Furthermore, he had previously asked White Shark, and the laws of the pre-era had all been lost in the catastrophe at the end of the fifth era, with not even one in ten surviving. That's right, a normal military organization would not save such things in its database—in fact, the megastructure beneath his feet was the same; those legal documents were stored on a small external storage drive.
This meant that tens of thousands of years ago, some bored guy, either for study or for fun, had externally connected a complete set of Human Federation laws to the database of this megastructure—and then, across ten thousand years, it had fallen into his hands.
He did not believe in fatalism, but this damned coincidence made him feel a bolt of lightning shoot up from his feet, straight to his crown, making him feel as if every hair and even every flake of skin on his scalp was trembling wildly.
With these laws, all his work on Tianjin Seat V89 would be advanced significantly: for building the administrative structure, he could refer to the organizational laws within; for the construction of judicial organizations, he could study the judicial laws within. Most importantly, most of these laws could be used directly with only slight modifications—the structure of the Human Federation was also a military-political dictatorship, which highly overlapped with the system Xi Hai currently had!
As long as he could digest this precious harvest, he could directly pull the legal process of his domain from just starting to a mature stage in one leap! To put it without exaggeration, it was like taking a settlement that had just begun farming and pulling it directly into the post-information age!
Xi Hai, with an incredibly excited mood, opened the first Human Federation Constitution—now, as long as he could confirm that these files could still be opened normally, that would be fine!
Soon, the loading bar finished, and a quote appeared before him:
"Sword and fire can win land, but only law and reason can conquer hearts and forge immortality." [—First Grand Marshal of the Pioneering Military Government/Human Federation - Chen Zhengbang]
Subsequently, ten thousand years of legal sedimentation slowly unfolded before him—Section 1: Human Racial Continuation and Bloodline Purity...
The Human Federation Constitution was relatively short, divided into more than a dozen major modules. From the macroscopic racial narrative to the detailed structure of individual rights, this constitution provided a general interpretation. It was like the skeleton of the giant that was the Human Federation, solid and reliable.
After briefly browsing through the entire constitution and confirming the integrity of the subsequent legal documents, Xi Hai had the entire document copied and uploaded.
At the same time, the familiar notification sound of the night lamp also rang out almost simultaneously— "Time-Space Walker progress bar advanced:" "second era: 3% —> 18%" "Second Great Decay: 1% —> 21%" "Task rewards: proxima centauri coin * 36000, Encrypted Technical Archive * 36" (Each 1% of the progress bar is 1000 proxima centauri coin + 1 Encrypted Technical Archive)
"Oh~~ night lamp, this sound is so wonderful~~ night lamp~~ I love you so much~~~ Good! Then let me *** you!!! Oh, wrong, I got the channels mixed up."
"Alright, then let's..."
"Beep, beep, beep!" Just as Xi Hai was preparing to open the box on the spot, his personal communicator suddenly rang. When he connected, it was from the Commander of the Ninth Mobile Fleet.
Just after finishing the report, the other side threw a pile of explosive news at him— "Report, Supreme Director!" "Our Marine Corps just captured a guy who claims to be an Admiral of the Imperial Navy. His name is Kaims Hill Borea," "He just said he wants to talk to our direct superior..."
As he spoke, the other side seemed very angry, almost gritting his teeth as he continued, "That arrogant person also spouted nonsense, saying he wants to immediately take over the supreme command of our fleet, and even said he wants to send you to the Imperial Military Court!" "The credentials he produced are real. We dare not act on our own and intend to ask for your instructions first," "How should we deal with this guy?"
Xi Hai was stunned for a moment, then immediately remembered who he was—wasn't this that... that speed bump fleet he had casually rammed to death? Wait! He seemed to remember something! Wasn't that the leader of those guys who called themselves yujin people? Didn't they claim to have some Yutai bloodline? And damn it, they were attacking a place full of civilians!
Facing such inhuman heretics, Xi Hai suddenly felt something surging wildly in his bloodline. He remembered his childhood, remembered his childhood name: his mother had left his father after giving birth to him. To express his longing for her, that man had compressed "hope mother returns" into Xi Hai's childhood name—his childhood name was Xi Mu Lai. As for his current name, because he was born in the Year of the Pig, he used the single name Hai.
In short, faced with the terrible names of these aliens and heretics, Xi Hai's bloodline indicated that its awakening this time was inevitable.
"What Imperial fleet? Do you have an order?" "No order?" "Then it's simple—the bold aliens dare to impersonate the Imperial Navy?" "This is no longer an ordinary alien! We must strike hard!!!" "Make them into soap!" "Oh, no," "Escort all these war criminals to the square in Baghdad, try them on the spot, and execute them on the spot!" "Yes!"
The other side immediately responded loudly. ... Escorted by several Marines, Xi Hai returned to the surface along the original path. The follow-up engineering troops had already landed, and their task was to dig this megastructure out completely—however, this might be a bit difficult, because according to scans, the entire Baghdad was built on top of this megastructure—or rather, this planet was used to hide this megastructure.
The interior of this planet was completely different from a normal planet—its interior was hollow, like a spherical warehouse, and its crust was forcibly linked together by some devices he couldn't understand. Xi Hai couldn't figure out how it was maintained as a sphere no matter how hard he thought. In short, having come to this square... oh no, planet, anyone would have to say, "Human Federation is awesome."
However, this also brought a small problem—that was how to deal with the humans on this planet. Although he could rely on brute force to make them pack up and board the ships, Xi Hai still hoped for a better solution—according to preliminary investigations, although this was indeed the base camp of the Saints, the people here were not extreme lunatics like the Saints. It was difficult...
Suddenly, a communication came in, "Report! We have searched the crash site of the Saint leader's Shuttle reported by the two research officers!" "We found a survivor, and he claims to be the leader of the Saints!" Oh ho, isn't the solution here?
